Tasteful tripe to tantalize...

Touched

by Y. M. Roger


Time takes tidbits that tears try to treasure,
tediously tangled though they transcend –
Tapestries tied to tenuous tethers,
tunnel through tactical tunes tres Townshend*…
 
Tonight, the triumphant textures take tea,
transfer thousands to temporary tides –
Then treasonous throngs track the timpani,
targeting those tears time’s truths terrified…
 
Tomorrow, tributes to turmoil trumpet
time’s tossing tender trebles to trade –
‘Til twelve tunes tickle tambourine’s tuffet,
taking today’s trend toward time’s tirade.
